These are some of the treatments that can be prescribed at Dr Bonaros’ hair regrowth clinic:
FUE Hair Transplant - Direct Hair Implantation
Our hair loss clinic in Glasgow provides some of the best and most advanced techniques for hair restoration surgery for men, women, and transgender patients (both MtF and FtM).
A Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) hair transplant is a surgical treatment for hair loss available at our clinic in Glasgow. This surgical procedure involves harvesting functioning healthy hair one by one as individual follicular hair grafts. The next step, direct hair implantation (DHI), involves using a sharp hair implanter pen as our standard implantation technique. During an FUE hair transplant, the hair follicles are implanted quickly and efficiently on the head, avoiding the risk of repetitive placement trauma.
Our FUE procedure for hair implants in Glasgow is safe, minimally invasive, and leaves no linear scarring on the back of the head. Dr Bonaros performs FUE transplants on the scalp and temples.
Unshaven Hair Transplant
An unshaven FUE hair transplant, or UFUE, provides a discreet hair restoration option for patients who wish to avoid the conspicuousness of traditional hair transplant methods. Unlike the standard FUE, which usually requires shaving of the donor area, UFUE allows patients to maintain their hair length during the procedure.
This innovative approach is nearly identical to a regular FUE transplant but with the distinct advantage that no shaving of the hair is necessary. The subtlety of the method means that patients can return to their daily routines with minimal evidence that they have undergone a hair restoration procedure, which addresses a significant concern regarding discretion and privacy.
Beard Restoration – Beard Hair Transplant
A beard transplant is a safe cosmetic procedure that can effectively treat an absent, thin, or patchy beard. Beard transplants are a subcategory of facial hair transplantation.
Based on statistics from the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS), facial implants (beard and moustache) increased by 121% worldwide from 2014 to 2019.
The basic principles of hair transplantation are the same. During a beard transplant procedure, healthy hair follicles are harvested similarly to scalp hair transplants. These are then implanted at a precise angle, one follicle at a time, to give the highest density and most natural-looking results. Dr Bonaros is a beard hair transplant expert who can help you grow a healthy-looking, fuller beard.
Body Hair Transplant
Alongside our other hair loss treatments in Glasgow, we also offer Body Hair Transplant (BHT) procedures. These hair transplants utilise hairs from the scalp and are designed for people with thin hair or no hairs at all in the chest, abdomen, or pubic area due to a genetic predisposition or prior laser removal.
Suitable existing hair is typically extracted from the back of the head, and the hair follicles are then implanted in the desired area in the most natural-looking way possible. As with all of our treatments, this is a procedure that Dr Bonaros performs himself at his trusted hair transplant clinic in Glasgow.
PRP Hair Treatment
There are numerous surgical and non-surgical treatment options available to combat balding. More recently, these have come to include PRP injections. As a leading hair restoration specialist in Glasgow, Dr Bonaros offers tailored treatment plans, including PRP scalp injections for hair growth.
Having traditionally been used for musculoskeletal issues, PRP is a relatively new hair loss treatment. The procedure involves collecting platelet rich plasma from a patient’s bloodstream and injecting it into their scalp to promote hair growth and quality. PRP therapy is most commonly used to treat male and female pattern hair loss (also known as androgenetic alopecia).
Minoxidil Medications
Minoxidil is an over-the-counter, topical medication available in many different strengths and liquid and foam forms. It can help men and women suffering from a hair loss condition or looking for ways to regrow their hair.
Minoxidil is commonly sold under the brand name Regaine or Rogaine, although other popular generic minoxidil brands are just as effective at treating hair loss. After starting a minoxidil treatment, it may take up to six months before you begin seeing results. Please also note that Minoxidil is not a once-off permanent solution to combat hair loss. While it is an effective hair regrowth treatment, it only works for as long as it is used. Minoxidil needs to be continued indefinitely to maintain its positive effects.

Finasteride Medications
Finasteride (Propecia) is approved for the treatment of male pattern baldness. It promotes scalp hair growth and prevents further hair loss in many men who use it.
Finasteride comes in tablet form and is available on prescription only. As a leading specialist in hair loss, Dr Bonaros can prescribe this medication at his hair clinic in Glasgow. Finasteride is perhaps the most extensively studied medication for male pattern baldness.
Dutasteride Medications
Dutasteride is another common medication used to treat androgenetic alopecia in men. Although it is not a licensed hair loss medication in the UK, it is often prescribed off-label as studies have indicated its effectiveness in treating male hair loss.
Similar to finasteride, dutasteride is an oral medication that is only available with a prescription. Dr Bonaros may prescribe a dutasteride prescription after a consultation and examination at his hair transplant clinic in Scotland.
